Explosive rounds for your BB or pellet gun!

Explosive rounds for your BB or pellet gun!
This is my first instructable. Hope you like it! I know I do...

My dad once told me how to shoot explosive rounds from my BB/pellet gun. I was amazed to see how well it worked, and I finally have a chance to show it off. First of all: DON'T BE DUMB AND BURN SOMETHING DOWN!!!! If you do, I am not liable. It shouldn't happen as long as your careful.

Anyway, lets get to the fun stuff...

an airsoft gun is a bb gun, an airsoft gun shoots plastic or metal bb's, it doesnt have to be metal bb's to be a bb gun.

actually most bbs are smaller than airsofts so you usually cant use bbs in an airsoft gun

Au contraire, A bb is a Ball Bearing. Ball Bearings are made of metal. An airsoft gun is not a bb gun, its a toy. You can not kill a rabbit, squirrel, mouse, etc with a airsoft gun! Unless I guess you can get close enough to bash it with the gun itself.

Thats not a bb gun, this is a bb gun...http://www.instructables.com/id/BB-Machine-GunNOT-AIRSOFT!!!!!/

just so u know, BB was actually the size of the rounds they used to use, the also had B and BBB, but BB was the most common so that was just adopted as the name. BB does not stand for ball bearing

bb means ballistic bullet, or a small, cheap, not-so-dangerous bullet replacement for target practice.

I agree with you about the not being a bb gun part but my friend killed a snake by shooting the snake in the head at a 10 foot range

If the pellets are made of aluminum, I heavily doubt that they're airsoft pellets.

my brother has an airsoft rifle that could quite possibly kill a squirral though i have not tested that as my mom would be annoyed if dead squirrels started showing up all over our yard

Oct 22, 2009. 1:54 PMkibbler says:
No way. I have the same gun, and there's no way it could kill a sparrow.
Oct 22, 2009. 9:10 PMsomecreativename14 says:
I was about 15 feet away.
